Robin Kelly, Ph.D.

Today I announce my run for the US Senate. This moment demands proven leaders with the experience to take on tough battles. I've never backed down—not from gun lobbyists, not from MAGA extremists, and not from a fight for what's right. Join my campaign 👉 robinforsenate.com

I want to send a special congratulations to Donna Miller for winning the Democratic nomination to succeed me in representing the 2nd Congressional District. Donna, we have worked together for years, have known each other longer and I look forward to a smooth transition that will ensure the people of the 2nd District continue to receive strong representation in Congress and that you hit the ground running.

I want to congratulate Lt. Governor @JulianaStratton on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. Juliana, I wish you much luck heading into the November election. @RajaForIL, thank you for a great race. We still have so much work left to do in Congress. Let’s leave it all on the field for the people of our districts, our state our country. I want to recognize Kevin Ryan, Bryan Maxwell, Sean Brown, Awisi Bustos, Christopher Swann, Jonathan Dean and Steve Botsford. Thank you for stepping up and running. Our state and our country need to stay engaged.

Tonight isn’t the outcome we wanted, but I am so proud of us, and I still believe in putting people over profits. You want to know that your elected leaders are fighting for YOU, not distracted by outside noise. I’ll continue that fight in the US House. I still have your back.

Thank you, Richard, for your enthusiastic vote! ☘️ My vision for the future of Illinois puts people over profits. Billionaires and corporations should pay their fair share in taxes so life is more affordable for YOU.

Had to have a bite to eat at Manny's Deli! My grandparents owned a mom-and-pop shop, so I know a thing or two about the grit and hard work it takes to run a small business. The Raskin family's owned Manny's for four generations. It's a Chicago staple!

Illinois, I got my eyes on you! Go vote! iwillvote.com

Head to toe in Kelly Green 💚 Don’t get pinched this St. Paddy’s—go vote TODAY for the most qualified candidate!
